Thanks a lot for your efforts
Hi Lauren, First of all, lemme thank you for such an amazing and informative video as well as for the checklist. I am professional virtual assistant working for a VA firm and I am looking forward to grab some freelancing jobs and provide my own consultation services. I was doing my homework on how to get some clients and what services to offer but I wasn't able to put my skills into words or categories that's where your checklist helped me. It helped me to identify what to put into my profile and what to offer. Thanks again. I am already a fan and I am looking forward to following you for more such content and contribute to the community in ways possible for me. Obviously, I am not a Mama but looking forward to contribute to and collaborate with some amazing people out there. Thanks. 🙂
Hi Lauren! I’m sort of new to doing VA work but not really. I’ve been in the corporate world for 20+ years and have supported many managers and most of them being remote bosses. So, I’m no stranger to virtual work. My question is, how does one try and transition into this line of work without their current employer discovering it? I still need the income from my current work but am looking to becoming a full time VA. How does one stay ‘incognito’ while slowly ramping up and building up a client base?
Hey mama! Great question. I would recommend looking at your HR and company policies to see if they require you to disclose any additional income that you are earning. You are probably not the first person to have this conversation! Many employees have "side hustles" to supplement their income -- whether that is income from a MLM, offering ride share services, etc, but still work their 9-5 job. Some employers require you to disclose the information this due to potential conflict of interest, and I would never want to encourage you to do something that could compromise your current position! This doesn't necessarily have to be a negative thing -- I disclosed my freelance work to my employer, and when I left a few months later, I was able to turn them into a paying client doing the exact same thing I was doing as a salaried employee!
Awesome Info! I have worked with so many different companies in my freelancing business! - Online Course Creator and Business Coach (the best in the biz 😉) - Apothecary - Podcaster - Women’s National Networking Organization - Pest Control - Sales and Marketing Coach - Instagram Strategist I have also worked with a couple of people in a personal setting helping them with data entry, website setup, and custom database builds!
Seriously, you are amazing mama! I have all of your videos on autoplay as I am creating my website/dedicated instagram and facebook group. I am constantly writing down what you say, you are very knowledge and giving me the motivation to keep going until I am done doing what I need to do for the day! Thank you thank.you!!!! 💙❤💙❤

Hey, I live in California... Struggling in getting clients. I specialise in websites and social media. I was thinking Maybe I should do door to door sales for my services to outlets and shops. Do you think it's gonna add at least two to 4 clients a month?? Thanks in advance:)❤️
Hey! What has your current approach been? The challenge with door to door sales is that you have no idea what their needs are related to their websites, if any! Have you tried networking groups online or in person? Or even job boards? Connecting with agency owners who subcontract this work? I would take a more targeted approach where you KNOW your time and energy is spent connecting with people who would either need your services or be able to refer you to someone who does.
It's not my favorite place because it can be a race for the cheapest service! I prefer networking online. Check out this playlist on how I recommend getting clients: ua-cam.com/video/kPClYoH3sx4/v-deo.html
It definitely can be, especially if you treat freelancing like a job. If you focus on establishing your credibility and exposure, the work comes to you ;)
what is the difference between freelance VA and just a Virtual Assistant who works from home? is there a difference? I know this may seem like a strange question but I have to ask.
Great question! A freelancer is an independent contractor, which is a W9 worker, not a W2 employee. As a virtual assistant (working from home) you could potentially be either a remote employee or a freelancer.
Have you tried networking off of sites that require applications? Many women in my community get started with making connections with people rather than pursuing job boards. I have many networking resources right here on this channel!
Wow, is all I can say. Love your style of presentation. Not just presentation is good, it's very informative as well. Would you like to suggest something for Indians. After being in the corporate world for more than 20 decades in progressive roles, I now wish to work remotely (preferably as Virtual Assistant). I have even worked as Executive Assistant to CEO of a MNC and the CEO has recommended me on my LinkedIn profile. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thank you.
Wow, you have a ton of great experience! I have a playlist all about finding clients to work with online, that's the best place to start: ua-cam.com/play/PLR2jM5M8EKWriPfnst61CTcZcludZ2BB0.html Cheering you on!

Great day! I am Joel by the way, I am a breadwinner and a self supporting student at the same time. Due to inevitable financial crisis I worked in a BPO company while studying. I feel a great sense of pride in the knowledge of working while at the same time studying. However, Recently I got sick and was terminated, it frustrates me because i no longer have a job and our electric and water bill, went insanely high and i am supposed to pay for that since I no longer have a father and only got my mother, she owns a mini store but it is not enough to pay for my expenses while im studying. Moving forward, I heard about my friend working as a free lancer or VA and luckily got a client. I am hoping that any one here helps me to become a VA. Sadly, I don’t have laptop which is also essential for my research, thats why im trying my luck here. Rest assured, I will do my very best, im coachable as well and is willing to go above and beyond to achieve certain goals for ky prospective client. Btw, I have also studied various videos about whats does VA do.
